The major problem with all the affiliate sites is this one: as they grow, the efficiency of advertising is being nullified.
Why?
Well, it's simple: hundreds, thousands, millions of people are advertising exactly the same thing you are trying to advertise.
The result: you can hardly return money you've spent to advertise. All you get is wasted hours, frustration, the rest.
Is there way out?
Yes, there is.
The only way to earn is to create a program of your own. Your own. Selling your product. Where you are the one who hires affiliates. Cynical, naked, rude truth.
Do you have something to sell? I bet you do.
Can you become the master of your profit?
Of course you can.
This is the way out. To create your own program. But it is only the beginning, yet without your product you can't be a success.
If you wish to become really rich, do not promote others' programs. You just help somebody else to become richer. All those 'marketing gurus' are just clever puppeteers making many people to sell their products, for a small percentage of income.
The rest of these obvious ideas I can share with anyone serious enough to acknowledge that I have said bitter truth.
I have ideas. Many of them can change the life of many people significantly. But I am a partially disabled person, who can't do much alone.
But working as a team people can achieve many things. And the first thing is to study what are the advantages and flaws of all the marketing programs you encounter...
to be continued... possibly.
